APPARATUS FOR MANAGING HOST BUS ADAPTER - A server is installed with host bus adapters (HBAs). The HBA causes light-emitting components thereon to emit light in abnormal light emission patterns upon falling into an abnormal condition, and in predetermined light emission patterns upon receiving a predetermined command. A method for managing the HBA includes storing abnormal light emission patterns of the HBA, detecting an abnormality as to whether a predetermined HBA is in an abnormal condition, obtaining current light emission patterns of a light-emitting component of an abnormal HBA which is detected to be in the abnormal condition in the detecting, and controlling light emission by sending the predetermined command to all of the HBAs except the abnormal one to cause the light-emitting components thereof to emit light in the predetermined light emission patterns, when the current light emission patterns, obtained in the obtaining, do not match the abnormal light emission patterns stored in the storing.

METHOD OF TESTING A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND SUCTIONING A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE IN THE WAFER STATE - A semiconductor device has an alignment mark which can be recognized by a conventional wafer prober. A redistribution layer connects electrodes of the semiconductor device to electrode pads located in predetermined positions of the redistribution layer. Metal posts configured to be provided with external connection electrodes are formed on the electrode pads of the redistribution layer. A mark member made of the same material as the metal posts is formed on the redistribution layer. The mark member serves as an alignment mark located in a predetermined positional relationship with the metal posts.

MEASUREMENT DEVICE, MEASUREMENT METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - According to an embodiment, a measurement device includes a first calculator, a second calculator, and a determination unit. The first calculator is configured to calculate, by using images of an object from viewpoints, first confidence for each of a plurality of first three-dimensional points in three-dimensional space, the first confidence indicating likelihood that the first three-dimensional point is a point on the object. The second calculator is configured to calculate, by using distance information indicating a measurement result of a distance from a measurement position to a measured point on the object, second confidence for each of a plurality of second three-dimensional points in the three-dimensional space, the second confidence indicating likelihood that the second three-dimensional point is a point on the object. The determination unit is configured to determine a three-dimensional point on the object by using the first confidence and the second confidence.

MEASUREMENT SUPPORT DEVICE, MEASUREMENT SUPPORTING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - According to an embodiment, a first calculator, a second calculator, a determination unit, and an informing controller. The first calculator is configured to calculate a projection position on which the point is projected on each image obtained by an image-capturing unit, by using a direction, a first distance from a measurement unit to an irradiated point of an object, and calibration information between both units. The second calculator is configured to calculate a set of reprojection positions by reprojecting a three-dimensional position on each image. The determination unit is configured to extract, from the set, a reprojection position on an image containing the projection position calculated from the point measured and captured within a certain time period, and calculate a second distance between the reprojection and projection positions. The informing controller is configured to prompt to irradiate the object in a direction in which the second distance decreases.
